Track specialist Katie can land Champion

TRACK specialist Ashville Katie can land the Redmills Southern Champion 550 Stake at Youghal tonight.

Liam Dowling’s bitch has already won three major prizes here this year and can embellish her impressive strike-rate.

Ashville Katie has yet to sparkle in this stake, carding 30.78 before finishing a four lengths second in 30.23, but a rails draw can tilt the balance in this classy sort’s favour.

Dowling has a second string to his bow in the €10,370 to-the-winner decider in the bang-in-form Ballymac Floss.

She has been the star of the show to date, recording back-to-back 30.34 and 30.01 wins, but has been done no favours by a four draw.
